No Sew, Tee-Shirt DIY #4 Liera

I did this one in about 10 minutes. Easy, no sew shirt out of a mens medium tee shirt.
Great project for teens to do over the summer.
I named this after a wonderful girl I work with. 
She is the most beautiful person inside and out and has the kindest heart.
 Liera I just think you are amazing.

Tutorial 
Things you need

  1. Tee-shirt~ I used a mens medium.
  2. Scissors
  3. Chalk
 Cut out the collar.


Flip your shirt over  so the back is facing you.
With your chalk  draw  a shape like the one above.
I eyeball everything 
This is  about 10 inches across and about 10 inches down.
draw lines going straight across about one inch apart.
I did 5 lines but you can do more if you want.



Cut each line.
Careful not to cut the front of the shirt.
Stretch gently
to make the material tubular.
 cut a slit up one side of the shirt about 10 to 11 inches.
 Tie it to fit you.

All done

Have a wonderful Friday.
Lots of <3,

  6. This shirt is amazing. I just did it and yes it took 10 minutes. I used a medium and did 6 or 7 strips in the back...and it looks so good...so easy to make too! :) Keep up with the DIY tips...they are amazing! :)

  7. I love this look! I have a fitted women's tee (concert tee) that needs a little pizazz. Do you think it would still work with a fitted t? It's not super tight on me and I suppose I could leave off the cute side tie on the bottom. I'm just not sure if the back would still look as cool. Hmmm...I'm open to any opinions or suggestions. :)

    1. I think it will still look good with a fitted shirt and no side tie. Give it a shot. :)

  9. Totally just used this idea to make my daughters shirt for Halloween. Instead of being a plain black cat she now has stripes down her back :)

  11. Loved it so much I just finished making over a tshirt. But I went even further and made 3 cuts in the sleeve too. But when I pulled the back stripes I could see the tag inside back. How can I get rid of the stamp that shows, does anyone have an idea...Thx for the new designed tee.

    2. You could try using a black laundry marker over the writing

    1. Thank you so much Luisa. I don't know, I tied kind of a square knot which makes it lie flat.:)

  14. I am going on a rocker cruise--and this is an awesome idea.
    I am not sure which size MEN shirt to use though. I wear a womens MED/LG--I am thinking maybe a LG/XL?

    ReplyDelete
  15. Yes I would say a large, an XL might be too big.
